    I use a ball block when hunting. Ball and patch strip cut at the block. It’s just like trimming at the muzzle but with 10 patched and ready to go. If it’s range time, I cut the strip after starting...

    As said above it sounds like you have a very nice side lock. 209 is hard to ignite and cantankerous in inlines that are made for it. Try 777 if you're set on a hot substitute. It ignites much easier...

    Just put 30 grains (volume) of Cream of Wheat over the powder before raming the bullet home. The bullet base will be fine. It doesn't have to be such an ordeal.
